What lays by the toilet and is black, white ,orange and read all over? A
newspaper! No it could be the pot I'm about to try. The Texan red fox or
the grande dame of Clayart set me straight on this colour combo that
Minnesota Mel has been ranting about. she told me I'm not supposed to tell
anyone but it comes out smokey grey and not hideous red. Grey and black and
a tad of orange I can certainly live with.
You see at a more desperate time I tried red on shino. If anyone out there
has one of those pots I will buy it back at any price. They should live in
the local landfill site.
The Clayart info I got on soda ash worked very nicely so I'll run with this
Texan hot sauce. If it's as nice as it sounds I won't tell a soul.
Cheers,
Tony
